Vegetable Sicilian
HAIR REVIEWER

was the first preparation perfectly adapted to
cure diseases OF the scalp, and the first sue
cessful restorer OF faded or gray hair to its
natural color, growth, aud youthful beauty.
1t has had many imitators, but none have 50
fully met all the requirements needful for
the proper treatment of the hair and scalp.
HALLS HAIR REVIEWER has steadily grown
in favor, and spread its fame and usefulness
to every quarter of the globe. Its unparal
ls,ed success can be attributed to but ono
cause: the entire Jitljtn0tef its promises.
The proprictoss have often been surprised
4. the receipt of orders from remote coun-
,r.es where they had never made an effort for
is introduction.
The use for a short time Of HALLS HAIR
igxrwEn wonderfully improves the per-
sonal appearance. It cleauses the scalp from
all impurities. cures all humors, fever, and
drypess. and thus prevents badness. 1t
stimulates the weakened glands. and enables
tbem TO push forward a new and vigorous
growth. The effects of this article are not
transient. ike those of alcoholic prepara-
tons. but remain long time. which makes
is use a matter Of economy.

IY BRIEF, AND To THE Po!

IY BRIEF, AND To TIE PoINT.-
Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered
liver is misery. Indigestion is Il foe
to good nature.
The human digestive apparatus is
ono of the most complicated and
wonderful things in existence. 1t is
easily put out of order.
Greasy food, tough food, sloppy
food. bad cookery, mental worry, late
hours, irregular habits, and many
other things which ought not to be,
have made the American people a
nation of dyspeptics.
But Green's August Flowerhas
dono n wonderful work in reform>
ing this sad business and making tn
American people so healthy that they
can enjoy their meals and be happy.
Renomber No happiness with
out health. But Green's August
Flower brings health and happiness
to the dyspeptic. Ask your druggist
or bottle. Seventy~five cents.

HARVEST HOME PIc-NIc.--The
Snyder county Harvest Home Picnic
at Bowers grove on Saturday, was
auits well attended notwithstanding
the failure OF the 8. C l.. railroad to
sell excursion tickets for the occasion
as promised, The Middleburgh band
was the only musical organization in
attendance and Ex-Governor Andy
Curtin was hundred miles from the
ground, viz: at Bedford Springs, where
he delivered an address but not for the
people OF Snyder county In particular.
Professors Herman and Dawson de
liyered addresses which, though i'm
promptu, were appropriate and to the
point The people met, looked at each
other, talked awhile and then returned
home convinced that the newspapers
had again belied them as to the big
time they were to haye. 1t was n big
time for the size of it, and the news
papers we're only the mouth pieces to
tell the people what they themselves
expected and were none the less dis
appointed ut its result.

ADAMsBURG.-The carpenters have
commenced work on Helfrich "
Smiths new ware house. Also at the
Reformed parsonage.
The storm Of last Thursday after
noon was the severest experienced in
this neighborhood for the last twenty
years; swapping Off large trees half
way up the trunk. The storm was
chiefly wind, with very little rain.
The Prohibitionists af tho county
met at this place last Friday and
elected A. M. Carpenter delegate to
the State convention which will
meet at Harrisburg on the cath inst.
Quito a number OF our citizens
attended the picnic at Middleburgh.
All was greatly appreciated and en-
joyed, except the little humbug
which was practiced upon them by
way Of promised excursion rates.
Daniel Zeiber, who had come with a
team to meet his daughters on their
return from the picnic attempted to
cross the railroad while the train was
shifting. His horses took fright and
backed over the embankment into
the creek in front of Isaac Wetzers.
Fortunately no one was seriously
hurt. The vehicle however sustained
considerable damage.
OnMonday morning the constable
Of Lewistown brought tramp to this
place who he had traced to Mcclure
and arrested him for assaulting a
brakeman on Main line, stealing his
watch and chain and $50. The con :
stable with his prisoner returned to
Lewistown on Express. His pal was
ARRESTED at Selinsgrove.
Don't forget the festival on Market
street on Saturday evening. All are
invited.
A lively time was had at the Henry
IClay last Monday evening. REP.

SNAKES BY THE Ron. D.-On Wednes
day morning o: last week, Samuel
Bowen, James u. Smith and Henry
Beaver started for Shade mountain
to cut q bee-tree which they had dis
covered q few days before. They
came to the tree about ten o'clock
only to find it cut down and the Doe
and its honey taken by u party from
Fremont who had also found it. On
their way home they crossed "stone
rifle" or ledge Of rocks under which
the soaud OF running water
could be heard. While crossing this
their attention VS. attracted by the
rattling OF u snake and glance in
the direction revealed huge rattle
snake and large copper head lying
on pile, suning themselves their
bodies entwined in such manner
that is was difficult to distinguish one
snake from tho other. They at first
thought it was II male aud female
rattler, but upon Eilling and examin
ing them found the one snake to have
sixteen rattlers and the other none
which proved to he Il copper-head
After satisfying themselves ~ to the
truth Of this strange "amalgamatlor
OF the races" they turned to leave
when they found themselves perfectly
hemmed in with copperhead and rat
tie snakes, and before they left tn,
stone patch they had killed six rattle
snakes and three copper heads. Many
more got away-especially one old
female rattler which Mr.. Bowen de
scribed to us rs being as thick rs hi
leg. These are the facts rs W.
got them from the men, anC
we have no reason to doubt 4
word of it. There have been more
snakes found on Shade mountain this
year than ever before-the cause Il
probably the dry weather which com
pslls them to come to the base 70
water.
